2.1 PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS
FIL is a high selectivity cluster headend unit that allows the filtering and amplification of several TV channels.
The UHF band clusters can be programmed per group of channel, from a minimum of 1 to a maximum of 6
channels. The maximum number of clusters is 10 for model FIL 10 (6 clusters for FIL 06).
The headend unit can be programmed through a the built-in keypad and a LCD screen or through PC soft-
ware (FRPRO, downloadable at www.fracarro.com).
The headend configuration can be copied quickly and easily onto another unit of the same model or series
(i.e. from FRPRO10x to FIL10, or from FRPRO 06 to FIL 06) by using a USB pen drive.
The product is equipped with the cluster self-alignment function that allows the automatic regulation of all
gain so that the signals are equalized at the output and have the best noise figure.
Heat dissipation is due to natural convection thus no fans are required.
